House oversight committee Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney said in a statement that since the contempt vote, "Attorney General Barr and Commerce Secretary Ross have doubled down on their open defiance of the rule of law and refused to produce even a single additional document in response to our Committee's bipartisan subpoenas." She said she was filing suit "because the Trump Administration's brazen obstruction of Congress must not stand. President Trump and his aides are not above the law."
